Writing with Caca
Luis Felipe Fabre's WRITING WITH CACA essays a lyric investigation of the Mexican modernist writer Salvador Novo. The book centers around an investigation and reclaiming of Los Anales, the original, derogatory nickname given to Novo and his compadres in the modernist group Los Contemporáneos. Through Novo, Fabre conjures a poetics of the anus: It is not in vain that the sphinx and the sphincter share a single etymological origin, he writes. Similar to Robert Duncan's HD Book, Susan Howe's My Emily Dickinson, and Pierre Michon's Rimbaud the Son, Fabre's WRITING WITH CACA is as much biography as auto-biography, and brings to the US an important work by an important contemporary Mexican writer...
Humanoid
"These marvelous, intently dialogic poems believe in that presence (and that absence) that we call 'the reader.' In HUMANOID, each sharply measured poem staggers down the page in its self-interrupting performance, tilting and darting toward an elusive social possibility--that we, whatever 'we' are, might actually come to somehow dwell together. These poems do so in their own fleet idiom of admonishment--self-admonishment and admonishment directed toward others, reader included. It all combines in the rushing substance full of sting, care and delight that is this poetry's movement. Alertly observant of its own cognition, and the foibles of cognition at the interior of its historical moment, t...
Fleeting Monuments for the Wall of Respect
A collaboration of artists and writers commemorates a powerful symbol for social justice and freedom on Chicago's South Side The Wall of Respect, a work of public art created in 1967 at the corner of Forty-third Street and Langley Avenue on Chicago's South Side, depicted Black leaders in music, art, literature, politics, and sports. The Wall sparked a nationwide mural movement, provided a platform for community engagement, and was a foundational work of the Black Arts Movement.

Fleeting Monuments for the Wall of Respect argues against making a monument of it, or of other historically significant...

The Brightest Thing in the World
Literary Nonfiction. Poetry. Introduction by Jane Blocker. 2nd Edition. THE BRIGHTEST THING IN THE WORLD: 3 LECTURES FROM THE INSTITUTE OF FAILURE is a collection of essays that touch on seating strategies, Dick Cheney, cuckoo clocks, the Fibonacci series, butterflies and old friends. These threads weave together like a tapestry and by their accumulated resonance create an impression of loss and longing. As in Sebald's The Rings of Saturn, the reader passes through an associative experience. These are the essays of a poet; like a performance of words, each verb is as active as a muscle. While every sentence tends to its end, the reader resists its inevitable conclusion. Layout and design by Sonnenzimmer.
